How To Make cold lemon soup with zucchini

  • Step 1
    Bring the chicken stock to a boil in a large saucepan; add salt to taste.
  • Step 2
    Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk or electric mixer until thick and frothy.
  • Step 3
    Slowly add the lemon juice, beating constantly to prevent eggs from curdling.
  • Step 4
    Stir the egg-lemon mixture into the hot chicken broth; let cool and refrigerate.
  • Step 5
    Grate or julienne the zucchinis; blanch in boiling salted water for 45 seconds just to set the color and remove raw taste.
  • Step 6
    Quickly drain and run under cold water until cool to the touch; refrigerate.
  • Step 7
    To serve, mix the zucchini into the soup. Serve chilled; garnish with lemon slices.
